PAN supporters injured in rally

PURWOKERTO, Central Java: Fourteen supporters of the National
Mandate Party (PAN) were injured, with four of them suffering
from broken limbs, in an accident during a convoy rally marking
their last day of campaigning here.

The accident took place on Jl. Cilongok Raya in Cilongok
village, where hundreds of vehicles jammed the street. As two
trucks full of supporters passed going in different directions,
with supporters yelling greetings to each other, the side wall of
one truck collapsed and the crowd tumbled down upon one another.

The supporters are residents of Krazan and Penusupan villages.
The 14 injured supporters are being treated at Margono Sukarjo
Hospital. (45)
